I wrote up the contract myself.
Legally binding. Crystal clear. No strings. No feelings.
Just sex — and two million dollars in exchange for my time and expertise.

Carter Fabri may be Tampa Bay’s newest rising star, but off the ice, he’s all Bambi eyes and inexperience. He’s a virgin in desperate need of lessons in dominance, seduction, and everything in between.

And I happen to be just the woman to teach him.

I don’t need his money.
But I do need what it can give me.

I’m thirty-two, cut off from my family, and one bill away from drowning in student debt. The fantasy I’ve built around my lifestyle is getting harder to maintain. This pay day would secure the lifestyle I’ve worked too hard to let slip through my fingers and finally give me the chance to save for something I’ve always wanted — something I’ve never told anyone about.

So, I take Carter on as my student. I lay out every rule, every boundary, every carefully controlled term of our arrangement.

What I don’t plan for is how quickly he’d catch on — or how much I’d enjoy letting him take the reins.

This was supposed to be a lesson in power.
But somewhere along the way, I stopped being the one in charge.

I thought I could keep my heart out of it.
I thought I’d accounted for every risk.

But some consequences you can’t predict — no matter how carefully you draft the terms.

About

❤️Review

Kane is the President of his MC, and he will do whatever is necessary to protect his brothers.   When Savannah starts asking questions about him and his club he decides to take matters into his own hands.   He believes that her brother is working against the club but hasn’t been able to find him however if he has Savannah it will surely gain his attention.

Savannah knows that there is a lot more going on than what her brother has told her.   She needs answers and believes that Kane can provide them even if that means staying with him while they try to uncover the truth together.

Seeing Kane lose the fight when it comes to his feelings for Savannah was entertaining and proved to be his equal in every way.

Why you need to #ONECLICK this book…

🔥Nanny/Single Dad

🔥Opposites Attract

🔥Grumpy Sunshine

🔥Slow Burn

🔥Found Family

🔥Matchmaking 

🔥Romcom

She’s horribly unqualified…and everything they both need.

Travis

The last time I saw my ex-fling, she was toasting her engagement to a record producer. So when I heard she’d had a baby, I assumed he was the father…until she showed up at my house seven years later with a little boy and said, “Your turn.”

I’m a musician. My life is already loud and chaotic enough, and it’s definitely not kid-friendly. But I was raised by a nanny, and I see no harm in finding one for my son.

Too bad he rejects every single person I hire.

The only person he actually likes? Not a nanny. She’s a friend of a friend and the former floor manager at a brewery. But she has just enough childcare experience that I offer her the job out of desperation…and instantly regret it.

Hannah is a bossy, opinionated, loud-mouthed hurricane of a woman who tests my patience, my sanity, and my number one rule: don’t fall for the nanny. 

Hannah

Let the record show, I am not a professional nanny. I did, however, raise my little brother, so I know my way around a juice box and a tantrum. Which is more than Travis can say.

My new boss is uptight, obsessive, and needs more help than his kid does.

I was determined to pop in, whip things into shape, and leave, but the more I get to know them, the more I want to stay…

**A standalone romcom in the Babes of Brewing series of interconnected standalones**

Note: There are TWO different versions of this romcom:

1) A spicy open door version with some strong language and sex scenes

2) A closed door version with mild language and only kissing.

Please choose the version that’s best for you!

Blurb:

In their arms, danger becomes desire.

Every year, monsters demand their Offerings—women like me. This year, I thought I escaped. I thought I was safe. Then he arrived.

The Viscount.

Dangerous and ruthless, he declares me a late Offering.

Swept into the deadly realm of the Shadowfen, I realize I’m not here by chance.

They want to rule, and I’m their key. My reality crumbles, and as much as we act like enemies, they refuse to let me go. Their touch ignites a fire I can’t resist, fueling desires I never expected.

They call me their little monster.

Maybe they’re right.

Because when everything is stripped away, a fiercer side of me no one expected—not even me—emerges.

You see, in the shadows, temptation and peril collide.

So, ready or not, the monster within is about to be unleashed… and these three Shadowfen are eager to claim their prize…

When he works for a rival realty office, and she’s the PA who’s had a secret crush, what could go wrong when they both get stuck in a wild storm at a lake house?

Mister Curb Appeal, an all-new Friends to Lovers, Workplace romance from bestselling authors Mackenzy and Dakotah Fox is now available!

When he works for a rival realty office, and she’s the PA who’s had a secret crush, what could go wrong when they both get stuck in a wild storm at a lake house?
Joshua Lucas is the immaculate, sexy, bachelor and the eldest son in his dad’s firm: Lucas Property Brothers LA. I’ve always admired him, and not just his cute buns in those designer suits he wears. He’s funny. Charismatic. And his phone voice is swoony worthy. Pity we work for opposing realtor offices and I have to keep my hands off.
When my boss calls in sick for a big showing, I’m sent to Lake Haven to close the deal for a famous actress.
Getting the city grit out of my hair feels like a mini-vacay… That is until I walk in on Joshua in the shower of the Airbnb.
It turns out his dad and my boss (who are a couple) didn’t tell either of us we’d both be there.
Throw in my mischievous tabby cat, a storm from hell, plus a deal I have to land, and we’ve got ourselves one hot mess.
All we have to do is keep our hands off one another this weekend, but that’s becoming increasingly difficult when I’ve already seen Joshua Lucas naked and he’s looking at me with those bedroom eyes I can’t resist.
I don’t know how long I can hold out, or if breaking all the rules could stay just between the two of us… it’s one weekend, no one has to know, right?

🏘Review🏘
When Lexi agreed to step in for her boss and show a property she never expected the events that would unfold. She is expecting to see a client but who she finds instead is Joshua, who is not only from a rival real estate agency but also the man she has been trying to deny her attraction to.

Joshua works for his father’s real estate company who is convinced to spend some time at one of their properties. What he wasn’t expecting was that he wouldn’t be alone or that find himself stranded there with Lexi might finally allow them to realize the feelings between them aren’t forbidden but fate.

Joshua is the perfect mix of sweet and swoony while Lexi is both strong and sassy. The interactions between them are humorous and hot and the romance endearing.

FATED LOVE WITH YOU

Whitney G.

Release Date: August 8

Available in Kindle Unlimited

Autumn should’ve walked away when she had the chance.

But instead, she let herself be pulled deeper into the world that surrounds Ryder—the luxury, the danger, the lies.

Every touch is addictive. Every secret drags her further from the woman she used to be.

And just when she thinks she’s found solid ground, the rules change.

The pieces are rigged.

And the one thing she wasn’t prepared to gamble…is already on the table.

Her fate isn’t just tangled with his anymore.
It belongs to him.

💜Review💜

Ryder is a man who guards his secrets from his need to vengeance to the fact that he is a single father to his precocious seven-year-old daughter Adele whose musical skills extends far beyond her age. He is intrigued by his new employee however he wants her for much more than work.

Autumn’s life has undergone many changes both when it comes to her divorce and the emergence of Ryder in her life. He is a man of mystery that has us needing to know more about him and what his true intentions are.

This is the second book in a trilogy so there is still a lot to be revealed about Ryder and Autumn as this installment provides some answers but raises more questions as well.

Tropes:

🔥Firefighter Hero

🔥Fake Dating

🔥Close Proximity

🔥Opposites attract

🔥Small Town

Blurb:

I’m no damsel in distress. At least not until I get myself stuck inside a burning house and need to be rescued. One viral video later, I’m agreeing to fake date the firefighter who pulled me out of the fire.

Seth Davis is new in town. He’s not only quiet and reclusive, but he looks like a lumbersnack. Add in the firefighter gig and it’s no wonder the women in this town are flocking to him like bees to honey.

He hates the attention and I need to send a message to my cheating ex that there’s no way we’re ever getting back together. It’s a win-win situation.

Except…

Seth’s fake touches start to feel very real. Underneath the grumpy persona is a sweet side any woman would swoon over. Including me.

I’m not sure I’m ready to open my heart again, but what we’re doing feels like a lot more than pretending.

🔥Review🔥

Seth is a firefighter who was only doing his job when he rescued Violet from a fire.   Now the publicity that went along with the rescue has given him attention he doesn’t want so when Beth wants to thank him he mentions that the best way she could show her appreciation is by pretending they are a couple.

Violet is a crime scene tech who found herself in a dangerous situation when she is rescued by Seth.   Seth’s suggestion that they pretend to be a couple seems like a win-win as it will also allow her to distance herself from her ex but developing feelings for each other wasn’t part of the plan especially when a person from his past resurfaces and creates a challenge that neither saw coming.

Violet is strong, independent and sees beneath Seth’s cantankerous demeanor to the man he truly is.   The attraction between them is undeniable and the way they support each other through a time of turmoil only reinforces that they are perfect for each other in every way.

One night, one kiss, and a spark hot enough to melt the ice.

Preston’s all in on his hockey career as a Stingray, and Chelsea’s just about to start a new adventure in Paris—until an unforgettable night at an Ugly Christmas Sweater party changes everything. A few drinks, some dirty jokes, and a kiss under the mistletoe leads to a night of toe-curling, name-forgetting, no-strings-attached fun.

They part ways in the morning, no regrets—just a sizzling memory they both assume will fade.

A year later, Chelsea’s in Baltimore, launching her dream bakery—and navigating life with a baby she never saw coming. The father? Mystery man from that one unforgettable night. What she really didn’t expect? Him walking through her door, very real, very sexy… and very much still capable of making her forget how to breathe.

Preston hasn’t been able to get her out of his head. Now that he knows the truth, he’s not going anywhere. The question is—can they turn one accidental night into a real shot at forever?

Rematch

🏒Review🏒

The night that Chelsea met Preston she was still healing from the way that her last relationship ended.   She has plans for her future and they include her leaving town so she knows that one night with Preston is all they can have.

Preston has not forgotten the night he spent with Chelsea a year earlier so when fate has their paths crossing he isn’t about to leave it there.   Seeing her again only confirms that the feelings he has for her are stronger than ever, but she has news that will either bring them closer or tear them apart.

This is a heartwarming story about two people who are meant for each other as one night was not enough.    Preston is everything you could want in a man as he shows Preston that she can trust him with her heart and there is nothing they can’t overcome together.
